Inventor: LUSCOMBE BRIAN H
IPC: A61B17/064

Abstract: A method of tissue compression is disclosed herein where the device to cause such compression is composed of a fastener bar and receiver. The device has the capability to self-adjust to tissues of varying thicknesses to cause hemostasis. This tissue gap variability allows for compression of regions of tissue where thick and thin tissue are both present. This variability also enables the same device to be used on a wide variety of tissues of different thicknesses. The tissue fastener bar of this invention contains a series of cut-out portions which distribute the compressive forces along the device in an alternating, staggered manner. The receiver is of a generally U-shaped configuration with the fastener bar being contained at least partially within the U-shape. Compression occurs between the side walls of the receiver and the fastener bar and variability in gap is accomplished by flexure of the side walls of the receiver. Varying side wall flexure is enhanced by cut-out portions in the receiver which allow each segment to flex somewhat independently. A number of options also exist for configuration of the fastener bar and/or receiver with the same basic method of compression being unchanged.

Abstract: The invention is a package including a bundle of shirred casing sticks disposed and held together by a container which completely encloses the bundle. The container is formed insitu about the bundle from a heat shrink film 16 which stiffens on heat shrinking to provide a self-supporting container conforming in shape generally to the bundle shape. During heat shrinking, portions 18 of the film are insulated by adhesive tape 26 to prevent welding of these portions so they provide flaps which open to permit removal or replacement of sticks. <IMAGE>

Abstract: A solenoid actuator for a fluid flow valve comprises a closure member (64) adapted to engage a fluid flow orifice (16), and includes a magnetic plunger (46) under the control of a solenoid, for moving the closure member (64) into or out of engagement with the orifice (16). To assist the opening of the valve, a diaphragm spring (66) aids the downward force upon plunger (46) at changeover, being deflected during the upward stroke of plunger (46) and held deflected until changeover. The solenoid plunger (46) is stable at either end of its travel to maintain the selected state of the valve, change of state to open or close orifice (16) being by means of a magnetic pulse generated by selenoid coil (43), the plunger (46) being latched at closure by permanent magnets (32, 34). The diaphragm spring (66) may form part of an assembly (62) including a membrane switch (70), responsive to the state of the valve, the assembly (62) fitting into the body of the closure member (64). Alternatively a reed switch responsive to magnetic flux may provide valve status indication. The use of a diaphragm spring to assist in valve opening, enables provision of an axially more compact, and electromagnetically more efficient actuator, able with appropriate intrinsic safety protection, to be enclosed within a gas meter housing to control an incoming gas supply under control of electronic switching circuits.

Abstract: Absorbent articles such as diapers, incontinent briefs, training pants, diaper holders and liners, feminine hygiene garments, and the like, designed to provide sustained dynamic fit about the wearer during use as well as to improve the containment of body exudates and wearer comfort/mobility. Such an absorbent article has an absorbent core preferably designed to fit within the low motion zone of the wearer so that dynamic forces imparted by movements of the wearer on the absorbent core are minimized. The absorbent article is also provided with a closure system for anchoring the absorbent article on the wearer to sustain the dynamic fit of the absorbent article throughout wearing. The closure system is designed so that a primary line of tension, fitting at an angle to the body, is formed to secure the absorbent article on a wearer. The absorbent article preferably further comprises elastic features for fitting about the extremities of the wearer, including elastic waist features, elastic leg features, and elastic side panels, that allow freedom of movement for the wearer as well as maintenance of forces about the body to sustain the fit of the absorbent article. Preferred containment assembly (chassis) designs are also provided.

Abstract: The invention relates to a method of treating reticulated foam with a controlled migration treatment medium to produce an improved air filter (11). Reticulated foam is treated with a highly viscous oil that protects the foam from hydrolytic degradation and increases efficiency of the filter (11) without causing unacceptable air restriction of the foam. An improved air filter (11) made from treated (17, 19, 21) and untreated layers (15, 23) of reticulated foam is also shown within housing (13).

Abstract: A method for multiple layer coating of biological tissue and cells for transplantation. The cell or tissue transplants are coated with multiple coatings of purified alginate. The method includes applying the first coat of sodium alginate gelled with divalent cations followed by optional treatment with strontium, barium or other divalent cation, resuspending the single coated droplets in sodium alginate and forming the halo layer around the first coating via exchange or diffusion of divalent cations from the single coating to the surrounding soluble alginate, removing the excess coating and gelling the remaining thin layer of soluble alginate with divalent cations. The coated transplants have distinct structure where biological tissue or cell core is covered with the first alginate coat, which is surrounded by an intermediate halo layer which is covered by the outer coating.

Abstract: The device has an actuating knob (1), a rotary sleeve (2), a stationary guide sleeve (3) and a sleeve (4) to accept a cartridge (9) of injection liquid. The actuating knob (1) is connected to a spring-loaded (8) advancing sleeve (6) fitted inside the rotary sleeve (2). When the rotary sleeve (2) is rotated about its longitudinal axis, the advancing sleeve (6) is first released and this moves with the actuating knob (1) into a starting position from which both can be moved in opposite directions. A piston-moving element (7) inside the advancing sleeve (6) is prevented by a pawl (31) for moving into the starting position and initially remains where it is. In the opposite direction, another pawl (32) engages in the piston-moving element (7) and pushes it together with the advancing sleeve (6) into the sleeve (4) with the cartridge (9) in which there is a piston (33) which is engaged by the piston-moving element (7) and finally pushed through the entire cartridge (9).

Abstract: A multiple relay arrangement comprises a common fixed part having permanent magnets, a common movable part having permanent magnets, and fixed coils having magnetically actuable movable cores connected to a respective contact means. To establish an electrical contact through the coupling means of the multiple relay arrangement, current is passed through the coil in one direction and through the remaining coils in the opposite direction. In the contact making state, the core will be repelled by the permanent magnet on the fixed part and attracted by the permanent magnet on the movable part. The coupling means connected to the core can then be used to connect together telecommunications conductors for instance. Remaining cores are attracted by the fixed permanent magnets and not moved, although the movable part will be moved away from the fixed part by virtue of the repulsion force acting between the cores and the magnets.
